I only expected very basic things to be declared like, how many spaces for indentation, braces positions (next line or same line), underscore_separated_names and not camelCase.

as far as I remember, there are no official rules on style

There is basic rules set http://www.boost.org/development/requirements.html http://www.boost.org/development/header.html

One consistent thing it noticed, is a preference of underscore_separated_names over camelCase in Boost.

This aspect is actually specified in the rules linked above.

You probably want to follow this, because that is also the style of the C++ stdlib.

Rather, because that is Boost requirement (as per the rules). Some Boost libraries extended the rules and developed more specific guidelines, for example https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/wiki/Guidelines-for-Developers Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net
